Ladies and gentlemen, there’s a new Cameron Crowe movie coming out next month. That may sound crazy because buzz around the film has been almost non-existant, but it’s true. The director of Almost Famous, Jerry Maguire and Say Anything is about to release Aloha, a Hawaiian-set military romance starring Bradley Cooper, Emma Stone, Rachel McAdams, John Krasinski, Bill Murray, Danny McBride and Alec Baldwin. It’s an insane cast in a film with a weird plot that involves satellites and space.

Aloha seems difficult to peg. But what better way to preview a Cameron Crowe movie than with its soundtrack? - via The Uncool:

Rachel McAdams will forever be, first and foremost, Mean Girls' Regina George, the Plastics’ queen. And you probably also know that McAdams originally wanted to play Lindsay Lohan’s character, Cady Heron, which would have been a mistake of monumental proportions. No one can be as backhandedly mean as McAdams’ Regina George, and no one can drive a convertible the way she can. We might wonder what may have been when it comes to a world where McAdams played Cady, but this isn’t the only role the actress almost took on.

McAdams took a break from acting after her major roles in The Notebook and Wedding Crashers, and told The Times that she “never really wanted to be a movie star.” This meant she turned down a lot of roles that ended up being huge ones.

The Silver Linings Playbook: David O. Russell revealed that Jennifer Lawrence’s Oscar-winning role as Tiffany opposite Bradley Cooper in was a coveted one, and a bunch of eligible actors auditioned for it, including Rachel McAdams (believable), Zooey Deschanel (apparently the role was meant for her), Anne Hathaway, and also, Angelina Jolie.
